You could say that for everyone pushing for an encryption ban. If they use whatsapp, encryption, if they use https websites, encryption. Banning encryption is nigh impossible, it's like trying to ban prime numbers. What they'll actually do is get even easier backdoors and criminalise the masses that use it while still using it themselves.
They don't want to ban encryption, they want to block encrypted chat apps, precisely so they don't have to build backdoors. AFAIK it's not possible to break signal/WhatsApp encryption without access to the targeted device, and once you have access you can get the messages directly without having to break the encryption.
This kind of thing just confirms how it's really all about the Power elites keeping an eye out on the plebes trying to organise and change things so that they can kill any such things in the early stages.
Democracy was supposed to slowly bring Autocracies around to its way of doing things but instead what we're seing is the very opposite of that.
The assault on encryption in Denmark, spearheaded by Justice Minister Peter Hummelgaard, is yet another example of the ruling class using the guise of "fighting crime" to erode our fundamental rights.
Hummelgaard's push to block encrypted apps like Telegram, Signal, and WhatsApp reveals the hypocrisy at the heart of this attack—especially when those in power, including Hummelgaard himself, use these very tools for their private communications.
This move isn't about protecting the public; it's about expanding the reach of mass surveillance, silencing dissent, and tightening the grip of censorship.
In a world where the state continues to encroach on our freedoms, defending encryption is a fight for the people’s right to privacy and autonomy against the ever-growing surveillance state.
